Milwaukee charities face steep financial challenges - BizTimes: "The woes local nonprofit organizations faced in 2009 - less support and more individuals needing assistance - continued in 2010 with ongoing concerns about the state of philanthropy in metropolitan Milwaukee, according to a new and expanded survey of local agencies commissioned by the Greater Milwaukee Foundation and conducted by the Public Policy Forum.
Sixty-six percent of the nonprofits surveyed for the 14th Annual Report Card on Charitable Giving say the economic downturn has caused a drop in giving. Forty-five percent of the agencies feel the state of philanthropy is getting worse. Of the organizations providing direct services to clients, 62 percent say demand for assistance is increasing."
